Drop Leaf Table Hinge H-278L | Bronze Steel, 3" — Sold with Screws

H-278L Drop Leaf Table Hinge — Bronze Finish Steel

Restore the function and period-correct look of drop leaf tables with the H-278L Drop Leaf Table Hinge. Constructed from steel with a warm bronze finish, this asymmetric hinge features a short leaf for the fixed table apron and a longer leaf for the drop section — engineered for the precise geometry that keeps drop leaves flush and stable when raised.

Sold individually and includes matching screws, so you have everything needed for a clean, hardware-matched installation.

Installation Notes

The short leaf mounts to the fixed table apron; the long leaf mounts to the underside of the drop leaf. The asymmetric leaf length is critical for proper alignment — ensure the long leaf is oriented toward the drop section before drilling pilot holes. Three countersunk holes per leaf allow for a flush, screw-secure fit with no exposed hardware.
